LIBERTY TEAM LOSES GAME TO LOCAL GIANTS

la a game featured by near beer and near fights the Liberty ball team lost to the Richmond Giants at Exhibition park Sunday afternoon to the tune of 5-4. In the second game of the double bill the first half of the eighth inning had been played and the Liberty boys had scored two runs in that Inning thus putting them in the lead when It was discovered that it was 6 o'clock and since the Giants had not had their last bats the runs scored by Liberty could not be counted. The game ended in a tie at 3-3. In the first game three different field umpires were used. The first was not satisfactory to the players and they (and the crowd) rushed at him and be was forced to retire from the umpire's job. The next man was not much better and he was so slow in making decisions that the players "canned" him also, On one occasion most of the crowd rushed from the grandstand to take the part of their favorite players when they had an argument with the u"mps." In the first frame of the initial game the Richmond team practically clinched the game by scoring four runs. In the second inning the Liberty boys scored their first run when Reddlnghaus doubled and scored on E. Sheard's single. In the fourth inning the Liberty team again scored when, with two outs Logan received his third base on balls, and Davis singled and scored him from second. The next man filed out. In the fifth Minner singled and reached second when the shortstop chose to try to get him rather than the runner but the second baseman fumbled. Minner scored on Reddlnghaus' single. The next man was retired on a fly to the shortstop. The catch made by Day was sensational. He ran in toward the ball and caught it Just before it touched the ground. In the first part of the sixth the Liberty players tied the score when C. Sheard received his base on balls and with two down. John Logan reached first on error and Sheard went in on the play. This ended the scoring for the visitors in the first game. In the eighth inning Cooper, Richmond's first man up struck out but the next man singled. He was forced, however, on the next play at second, but Jones reached first. He was advanced when Lynch was walked purposely. The walk proved fatal for the next man up. Hanibal, singled, scoring Jones with the winning run. In the second game the Giants started out in the same fashion but only succeded in scoring one run in the first inning. Francis was walked, he advanced on an error and scored on a fielder's choice. In the second inning the Liberty boys as before scored their first run but instead of one run they scored two. In the fourth Reddlnghaus. reached first on an error, ,

advanced to second on tne next piay and scored on the next play. In the last of the seventh the Giants tied the score. With two down Charleston beat out an infield drive went to second on an error. McReynolds reaching first on the same error and both men scoring on Burdette's double. The scores: First game R- H. E.

JACK. KEENB There' is some talk afloat now of organizing soccer football teams in the big league games in the major circuit parks next fall and winter. Undoubtedly the proceeds would go to recognized war funds. On the fact of it this sounds like a good move. There are thousands of soccer players and fans in many of the big cities. They are now organized into city leagues and have many atari known nationally among devotees of that sport. The game has sent its share of men to the front. Among the athletes t ofall early in the war were many stars of that sport. The leagues have been doing as much as possible, through benefit games to further aid the war. The plan certainly is worth considering.

Bill Hinchman, veteran Pirate outfielder, has slowed up to sue han extent that he is through in the garden. But he's still a crackerjack pincl hitter. Bill certainly can wallop that pill. Harry "Moose" McCormick, former Giant, who is now a lieutenant in the infantry and who has been serving under Pershing in France, is at present in this country, having recently come back for a short stay. McCormick has seen a lot of action and bears on his sleeve the single gold chevron which design denotes those who have been wounded. He was a victim of shell shock about a month ago and spent a few days in a field hospital. He says that Hank Gowdy's regiment occupied a position adjacent to his outfit on the fighting line and that he frequently had seen the former Boston catcher.
